Eagles v West August 26 Maughan Thiem Kia oval

Seconds 11.30 am 
League 2.10

Well I guess this is our last game for the year unless teams above us get beaten and we win

Clay Cameron listed with back injury TBC. Also Rory Lehmann (ankle - test) is listed twice? Hope that doesn’t mean problems with both his ankles! Seriously, hope he’s available.

BTW Mickyj, please confirm that if Port beat Centrals and Sturt beat the Cheats, and we win of course, that we end up 5th?

Sadly no, Headfan.

If we win - 7th

If we lose and South and Norwood lose - 7th

If we lose and South or Norwood win - 8th

If we lose and South and Norwood win - 9th

Thanks Columbo didn’t think we could

Thx Columbo. Realised after I’d sent the reply that we only get 2 points for a win NOT 4 like the AFL. Oh well!

Our must win game on Saturday is in the Reserves to maintain a place in final 5. An early start Mickyj.

I’ll be there whybother unless something unforeseen happens

The team is in. Would be a lot stronger if all the season ending injuries were avaiable.

No real surprises there. I like Jesse at the bounces and throw-ins. Finally a 4 man bench. Good luck to the Reserves.

Lonergan’s last game announced on Facebook

And so it begins

And Wimpy said in another topic Troy Menzel might be back at central’s with Dan

Our season in a nutshell, beat top side lose to bottom side. If Ballenden could take a mark we may have won. Poor finish to an average season cheers Jade and Jesse. Look forward to 2024

10am Saturday at Noarlunga before the 2 under 18’s finals it seems.

Thanks columbo

An omen : our last two coaches (not counting the dud in between) won premierships in their first year as coach.

Godden’s first Premiership was in his 2nd year, but we get the inference. I wouldn’t mind waiting till 2025 for our next Premiership.

Who if any from yesterday's game are eligible for the seconds next week?

There wouldn't be too many, perhaps Herbert and Watson??
I don't know the qualification rules but last year Mitch Duval played most of the season in the league but was dropped late in the season. He played the last 3 in the reserves and qualified for the finals. Lonergan possibly as he played the bulk of his season in the seconds. Mish Woolorgorang might be missing this week as he's gone home to look after an unwell family member. Should get Noah Angove back from injury this week, not sure about Sladejevic though.

I’m over the weekends game how the heck can we best Glenelg then play like that against West .
I’ll guess we’ve done that all year .

Depends on who wants to get up at 7AM to make the trek down south.
